Why is Bhai Dooj on Mon 26 Oct in Olean?
Bhai Dooj is on Mon 26 Oct: Dwitiya holds all of aparahna that day, and no other.
Dwitiya holds all of aparahna, 13:01–15:08. Dwitiya: 02:22 to 02:34 Tue.
Dwitiya ended at 02:34; aparahna is Tritiya.
One row per day, on one clock (UTC−5). Band: the tithi. Box: Aparahna. Light strip: day; dark strip: night.
The tilak is applied in aparahna, the fourth fifth of the day. Dwitiya runs from 02:22 on Mon 26 Oct to 02:34 on Tue 27 Oct, so only Monday’s aparahna (13:01–15:08) falls within it. No text giving Bhai Dooj’s time was found; aparahna is Tithika’s convention.
